Chapter 129 The silly son of the landlord
Sun Bomin and the village chief went outside the city today to book the nearest escort mission, which would be in two days.
That means we will only stay in Hejia Village tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
Before leaving, Aunt Sun said, "Let's go shopping tomorrow. We finally got a chance to go out, so let's buy some things to take back."
As for the one who paid the money, it must be Aunt Sun. Every time people from Sunjia Village came here, they always brought back big and small bags.
Sun Bomin responded. The gifts that the He family could take back had already been picked out. They were all practical things like fabrics and preserved food.
Sun Shan wants to buy some flower seeds and vegetable seeds to plant tomorrow.
The strength is there, but I don’t know what the seeds here are like. I have to plant them out to see.
When I woke up early the next morning, He Shuqiang and He Chunyuan came over again.
Sun Shan asked in confusion: "Brother Qiang, don't you have to go to school yet?" Yesterday, Old Master He San said that Brother Qiang should go to school.
He Shuqiang shook his head and said, "My stomach hurts. I ate too much last night and I'm not feeling well."
Sun Shan looked him up and down. He was plump and fair, and looked very energetic. He didn't look sick at all.
He Chunyuan on the side looked up and said seriously: "Brother Shan, my brother does have a stomachache, and he drank some stinky medicine last night. But he is fine this morning. Mother asked him to go to school, but he refused to go."
Sun Shan glanced at him coldly. Qiang Ge'er shrank his head and said with his neck stiff, "Brother Shan, I really don't feel well, it's not that I don't want to go to school."
De Geer looked at He Shuqiang with disdain, patted his fat shoulders, and said, "Don't lie to me, brother Qiang, you are making an excuse not to go to school."
Then he whispered: "I did the same thing, hehe."
When He Shuqiang heard this, his eyes widened and he covered his mouth and laughed.
Sun Shan ignored their little tricks and said calmly, "Come, let's practice calligraphy together."
When the three heard this, their faces immediately fell. They practiced every day, but Shanzi didn't seem to be able to improve anything, and the words he wrote were still mediocre.
Guyu helped them put the paper away and instructed, "Practice slowly here and don't run around. Your aunt will be here soon."
After saying that, she went back to her room to practice needlework.
Aunt Sun bought a lot of materials and asked Guyu to learn every day. She didn't need to know how to embroider, but at least she could sew. These were the basics she needed to know when she got married.
He Chunyuan asked: "Brother Shan, what is Aunt Chunlan doing here? Doesn't she need to go to the store?" The little fat girl was puzzled when she saw Aunt Sun suddenly coming here since she hadn't seen her for a few days.
De Geer explained: "We will go shopping and buy things to take back to Sunjia Village later."
Oh, I really don’t want to go back to Sunjia Village. It would be so nice to stay in Hejia Village. Life here is so good.
When He Shuqiang heard that Sun Shan was going back to Sunjia Village, he asked anxiously, "Brother Shan, Brother De, when are you going back?"
Sun Shan wrote the words stroke by stroke, without even looking up, and said, "The day after tomorrow."
When He Shuqiang and his sister heard this, they opened their eyes wide and said in surprise, "So soon, Brother Shan, you don't have to go back. It would be better to stay in Hejia Village."
De Ge'er felt the same way and said sadly, "I also want to stay in Hejia Village, but the village chief and uncle will definitely not let me. Oh, I really don't want to go back to Sunjia Village.
Sun Shan suddenly looked up and glared at De Ge'er.
De Ge'er took a step back. Shanzi was too cruel. He was so scared. What should he do?
Sun Shan said seriously, "Brother De, if you stay in He Village, what about your father, mother, elder brother, second brother, and grandmother? They miss you so much. Humph, I didn't expect you to be so heartless and ungrateful that you don't even care about them at all."
After hearing this, De Ge'er lowered his head in shame and was speechless.
Sun Shan then said to He Shuqiang and his sister, "Brother Qiang, Sister Yuan, my mother, grandmother, and sister are in Sunjia Village. I want to go back as soon as possible. They are worried about me because I have been away for too long. You don't want to be separated from your father and mother, do you?"
He Chunyuan shook his head and said crisply, "I don't want to be separated from my father, mother, grandfather and mother."
He Shuqiang also said: "Brother Shan, I understand. Are you missing your mother and grandmother? When I go to my grandfather's house, I will also miss my grandfather and grandmother."
Sun Shan said admiringly: "Brother Qiang, Sister Yuan, you are really filial children."
De Geer said embarrassedly: "Shanzi, I was wrong. I was very unfilial. I stayed in Hejia Village and ate delicious food and drank spicy food, forgetting my father and mother. I will not be like this in the future."
Sun Shan praised: "It is a great honor to admit your mistakes and correct them. De Ge'er, you are also a good and filial child."
We practiced calligraphy for a while.
Aunt Sun, Sun Bomin, and the village chief are back. We are going shopping today, so of course Aunt Sun will lead us.
Sun Shan said hurriedly, "Aunt, I want to buy some flower and vegetable seeds to take back. Sunjia Village doesn't have them."
It would be best to buy some fruit tree seedlings, but they are rarely available in the summer. Fruit trees are usually planted in spring.
The village chief and Sun Bomin suddenly realized what was going on and said approvingly, "Oh, we've been to the city several times, but why didn't we think of buying some vegetable seeds to take back? It would be nice to grow some different vegetables so we don't have to eat the same few things every day."
Not to mention that the village chief and Sun Bomin hadn't thought of it, even Aunt Sun couldn't think of it. She said happily, "Our Shanzi is the one who thinks far ahead. Okay, let's go buy some vegetable seeds. Sunjia Village doesn't have them. As for how to plant them, the vegetable seed seller will teach you."
Sun Shan looked at them speechlessly. How come he heard about vegetable seeds?
There are also flower seeds.
When it comes to shopping, He Shuqiang and his sister became very interested and clamored to go shopping too.
Aunt Sun asked the servants to ask for permission from the He family. She didn't dare to take the young master or young lady out without permission.
Unexpectedly, the He family was so generous that they actually agreed. However, all the servants were changed into servants, and 6 people were called to accompany them.
Sun Dagu and He Shuyu led Sun Shan and others on a carriage to the south city.
There are many common things sold there, and they are of good quality and low price.
Sun Shan and his companions got on the carriage and left Hejia Village for the first time.
Aunt Sun lifted the carriage curtain to let the children have a good look.
Whenever he saw something interesting, De Geer would scream, especially when crossing a bridge, he would exclaim in amazement: "Aunt, this stone bridge is so big, this river is so big, much bigger than the Dakeng River."
Aunt Sun smiled and said, "There are many rivers here, unlike our Sunjia Village, which is surrounded by mountains."
Sun Shan stared outside. It was around 10 o'clock in the morning. Even though it was a hot summer day, the streets outside were very busy, just like the Qingming Festival Riverside Scene.
Hejia Village is between East City and South City. Once you cross the river, you will reach South City.
Aunt Sun asked the servants to carry Yuan Jie'er, and she took Qiang Ge'er, while Sun Boming took Sun Shan and De Ge'er, and they came to a place that looked like the wholesale market in their previous life.
Street after street, selling different products.
Aunt Sun took everyone to the fabric street to buy fabrics. The main focus was on wear-resistant and practical fabrics.
Aunt Sun was a worthy businesswoman. She bargained hard and bought a lot of cloth when she was satisfied.
Sun Shan was thinking about whether he should take some goods back to sell. Then he thought, forget it, it's too small to do business. As for asking Sun Bomin to go, it's even more impossible. People who dare not speak when taking things to sell on the street.
Walking from the beginning to the end, Sun Shan saw some small items on the way and bought some to take back. He was determined to make sure that everyone had a share, and the second and third wives would also be given a share.
Hehe, anyway, it looks good, is inexpensive, and can please people.
In the end, Sun Shan bought the flower seeds as he wished, and he chose some that were good-looking and easy to plant.
When buying hair flowers, the little fat girl had a longing look in her eyes. Sun Shan picked out several for her. The little fat girl was so happy that she couldn't see her teeth or eyes.
As for Qiang'er, Sun Shan gave him a tiger-shaped sun hat. When he put it on, he looked like the stupid son of a landlord.
